Among those scheduled to present are author Mahara Sinclaire and representatives of the B.C./Yukon Royal Canadian Legion, Service Canada and Nurse Next Door Vancouver.

The expo will also have booths featuring local organizations, will and estate planners, federal departments and more.

Prizes up for grabs are to include a $200 gift card for Victory Memorial Funeral Centre, $150 gift certificates to Mountainview Wellness Centre and an original oil painting from Mikelson Mind and Matter Art Gallery.
